" Our family finally decided to try the Clay Oven after hearing so many great things, and we were not disappointed. The lunch buffet was generous with a wide selection of dishes, including Vegetarian options that did not compromise on flavor. The highlight for us was the Paneer Butter Masala; it was so creamy and rich! The owners were friendly, checking in on us frequently, making the experience even more enjoyable. Definitely a spot we will revisit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been a customer of Clay Oven for years, and while the food generally meets my expectations, I feel the quality has slipped a bit lately. The service still remains top-notch, but I hope the kitchen keeps up its commitment to authenticity, as that has always been their strength. The Butter Chicken continues to be delicious, but recent visits were lacking some of the spice that used to stand out. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is one of the rare experiences where the food was as good as the service! The wait staff knew what they were talking about when it came to the menu and offered excellent recommendations based on my preferences. I particularly enjoyed the Tandoori Chicken, which was flavorful and tender! I left with a full stomach and a happy heart. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to treat themselves to great Indian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had lunch at Clay Oven last Saturday, and while I was excited, I unfortunately found the food to be somewhat bland. I tried the buffet and felt that many dishes lacked the punch I was looking for. The desserts, though, were a highlight! While I can't say it was bad, I think it needs to improve in spice levels for a more authentic experience. The service was friendly, however. I may give it another try! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently brought my partner to Clay Oven for a date night, and it was a hit! We enjoyed sharing a variety of dishes to sample things and everything was delicious. The atmosphere was intimate, perfect for a romantic night. The staff was attentive and offered great recommendations. I particularly loved the garlic naan which complemented our dishes wonderfully. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for genuine Indian flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a wonderful lunch at Clay Oven the other day! The buffet had a vast selection, and I could tell everything was made that morning. The flavors were vibrant and authentic, an experience I will not forget! The owners were so sweet and welcoming, making sure I was happy with my meal. I took home some leftovers which I devoured later. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for true Indian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Clay Oven caught my attention because of its enthusiastic reviews. I expected to find authentic Indian flavors, and thankfully, I was not disappointed. The Tandoori chicken was well-marinated and grilled to perfection. The owners are exceptionally warm and engaging, adding to the lovely experience. I highly recommend visiting on a weekend for the lunch buffet! " (*Curated Review*)
